概要 PURPOSE/AIM:We performed a randomized, prospective animal study to investigate whether inhibiting the renin-angiotensin system with a (pro)renin receptor blocker (PRRB) prevents acute lung injury (ALI) in a rodent model.MATERIALS:We used Thirty-six male Sprague-Dawley rats. We administered lipopolysaccharide (LPS; 2 mg/kg) intratracheally with or without PRRB pretreatment (1 mg/kg/d).METHODS:We performed bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) and lung removal at 4 h after LPS administration and measured levels of inflammatory cytokines, high mobility group box 1 (HMGB-1) protein, and total protein in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF). Myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity was detected in lung tissue homogenates using a sensitive ELISA. We performed hematoxylin and eosin staining and immunohistochemical staining for nonproteolytically activated prorenin in the left lung.RESULTS:The PRRB decreased leukocyte counts and total protein, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-2, IL-6, and IL-10 levels in the BALF and MPO activity in lung tissue. The PRRB reduced interstitial edema, hemorRESULTS:rhage, and the neutrophil count in the lung tissues. Consistent with the reduction in lung tissue damage, immunohistochemical staining showed that the PRRB decreased the amount of nonproteolytically activated prorenin.CONCLUSIONS:The PRRB blocked LPS-induced inflammatory response in the lung and protected against ALI. Therefore, it is a potential therapeutic agent for preventing ALI.
